Kids love Kenn Nesbitt's hilarious poetry With their rollicking rhythms, playful rhymes, and mischievous twists, kids can't stop reading these poems. "The Armpit of Doom" includes seventy new poems about crazy characters, funny families, peculiar pets, comical creatures, and much, much more. Reviews Irrepressible, unpredictable, and raucously popular children's
poet Kenn Nesbitt was spawned in the same cracked petri dish as
Jack Prelutsky, to whom he is the natural heir. A title guaranteed
to generate "No, wait, read this one " responses, "The Armpit of
Doom" is more mayhem from one of the masters. Kenn Nesbitt wrote a book of poems Kenn Nesbitt's brain is the clown car of children's poetry. I
don't know how they all fit in there, but they keep tumbling out,
one after another, each one funnier than the one before it. I liked "Armpit" (the book) a lot. Armpits aren't my favorite
body part. Despite the many warnings ("Please Don't Read This Poem ") kids
cannot escape the odorous allure of Nesbitt's THE ARMPIT OF DOOM No
problem. They won't want to Instead they will find "There's only
one solution. Here's what you'll have to do: Tell all your friends
and family they shouldn't read it too " What makes this collection most special are the contemporary
details sprinkled throughout (the iPod, XBox, and Kindle, Red Bull,
J.K. Rowling, scrunchies, computer woes). Kids will really love the
clever nonsense in poems like "On the Thirty-Third of Januaugust"
and "It's Fun to Leave the Spaces Out." Teachers, beware:

" Fans of Kenn Nesbitt will gobble up this new offering, which
combines his infallible command of rhyme scheme with the
hilarious--yet oddly contemplative--wisdom of a child pondering the
world.
It's Official: In this brand-new collection, Kenn has totally made up over fifty poems involving Acrobatic Cats, Kung Fu Pets, and Chickens on Computers.
